Chapter 641 Kicked out
Liam felt the pressure crushing him ease up a little so he hurriedly took a few mouthfuls of fresh air to gather himself and calm down.
“Speak up, brat. Why did that old man send you here?” The elf did not care about his plight and only asked him what he wanted to know. “Speak up fast.”
“He wanted me to… cough… train under-” Liam only just started to explain when he was quickly interrupted.
“Stop right there.” Another loud laughter rang out. Liam looked up to see the elf casually walking out of the hall as if whatever was going on had nothing to do with him any longer.
Umm… You almost killed me just to say this? He was completely dumbfounded. He had come all this way just for this but what the hell was this outcome?
Liam swayed as he slowly stood up and the giddiness in his head was starting to disappear. He looked at the other elves in the room who were all now staring at him silently. There was still hatred in their eyes but now there was also pity.
After a couple of seconds, the King waved his hand and one of the elven guards rushed forward to help Liam stabilize and gave him some water to drink.
Liam smiled and did not accept the water. He could see that they were being polite but that was that. They were still closing the door in his face. He basically had to leave the place now as he had no more reason to stay.
It did not matter what he did or whom he helped. This was where it all ended. However, Liam was not ready to give up just yet.
“Your majesty.” He opened his mouth and the King immediately cut him short. “I wish I could do something but my hands are tied.” He then showed the door and added, “You are still welcome to enjoy the day in the city and taste our fine food and wine.”
Before any more words could be exchanged, the two guards at the entrance of the hall quickly arrived next to Liam, ready to escort him once again, this time out of the palace.
And just like that, he was kicked out of the palace in the next minute and even returned back to the outside market city on the outside after being pushed into another teleportation gate.
“So what now… hmm…” Liam sighed and let out a deep breath as he stood alone in the strange city full of elves who glared at him angrily. His gaze silently swept over the place as he came to a decision soon.
“Stay the night, enjoy the place, and then leave huh? Unfortunately, that’s not why I came here.” With the injured fox still in his hand, he silently walked out of the city, the same way he walked in.
Crossing all of the tall trees that lined up the way to the elven establishment, he once again arrived at the same wilderness. “Heh. Time to head back in.”
The next second the undead condor materialized next to him. “Go in and do some scouting for me. Let’s see if we can get our hands on some good prey.”
Screee! The bird screeched and flapped its wings, immediately taking off. In the nighttime, the soul undead circling the tall trees of the wilderness was a sight to see.
And just as it looked beautiful, it was also very efficient. Very soon, the bird returned with good news. It had found what its master was looking for.
After receiving the signal from the bird, Liam checked his surroundings first. There were not many elves patrolling here. Just a small group.
“No wonder these guys are getting taken easily.” He walked over to them whistling and then waved his hand.
“Hey there!” Liam casually introduced himself. However, the elves of course reacted differently.
“A human being?”
“Trespasser! What are you doing here?”
Thankfully for Liam, one person seemed to know about his short stint here so he stood up and calmed the others down. “Leave him be. I heard he had an audience with the King just now.”
The group of elves immediately looked at Liam in a different light. However, they were not yet completely convinced.
“If I am correct, he should be leaving our lands now. Instead, he is still standing here. Hmm… What are you up to, human?”
“Easy there. Easy there.” Liam smiled. “I am not here to make any trouble. I was indeed on my way back home but I spotted a few enemies whom you all might be interested in, so I am here to inform you.”
“What? What are you talking about? Spit it out clearly.”
“Barbarians. There is a group of them very close by. Probably waiting to sneak into the city and capture more elves to sell as slaves.”
“You! Watch what you are saying!” Liam’s words stung so the group of elves gritted their teeth, but at the same time, they couldn’t ignore what he was saying.
After a couple of seconds of hesitation, the elf who had recognized him spoke up again. “Wait here while we go inform our leader about this.”
“Ok.” Liam nodded. The group dispersed leaving behind two elves with him, both of whom kept glaring at him.
Liam, on the other hand, silently smiled. He had no intentions of waiting here. Without saying anything to the two Level 35 elves standing next to him, he quickly disappeared.
The elves couldn’t react in time and could only watch him rushing into the wilderness. The two looked at each other in puzzlement but eventually shrugged.
If he runs into the wilderness alone like an idiot, then it was not their problem. All they had to do was wait here and inform the leader of this development.
Not long after, just like planned, the other elves returned with a Level 53 elf who was supposedly the leader of this small group.
“The human being-” One of them started to explain how Liam had run away when a voice sounded from the distance.
“I am here.”
All the elves turned to see the human being they were searching for walking towards them and dragging along with him a bunch of barbarians.
